- Rachel will help take the guesswork out of the hydraulic system on a Ford 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 tractor or early 2000/4000 tractor with four-cylinder gas engine. She'll outline some troubleshooting and then demonstrate the most common repairs on the top lid of the tractor. Follow along on your own tractor, and then be ready to tackle the hydraulics on your own tractor.
The pump rebuild video will release mid-to-late March 2020.

As a tractor mechanic for 40 years, this is a absolute super video
I love the way she gets straight to the point and doesn't waste people's time on these videos like most channels do. I like watching this channel I actually learn things when I watch this.
All the videos from this channel are so well done and informative
This is great I have the same issue with my grandpas 800. Once we get some warmer weather I’ll tear into it!
This is a great video! Thank you for putting these together and giving those of us “intermediate “ shade tree mechanics a great resource for these older tractors. Me and my 641 thank you. The lift has been jumpy since I got it 2 years ago.
Love your videos. It’s a great thing you’re doing helping people keep these old tractors alive. A video on replacing or repairing the two tubes that run through the transmission would be stellar. Apparently, it’s a very common problem. And offering new ones ready to install would be even better!
She has the best videos for these old fords. I have a 861 powermaster and love to watch these videos! Thank you so much for you info and time!!!
I have a Ford 800. Just what I needed! Thanks Rachel!
Thank you for being so clear and concise. Your videos are well explained, focused and engaging.
Very good demonstration, nice to see those parts are available.
Restoring a 541 Offset Hi clearance and this video is a life saver!! Thankyou so much! Definitely ordering the kit
My grandpa was a mechanic at a Ford dealership during the 50’s, 60s and 70’s. Worked on these old fords every day. He could redo the hydraulics on one in no time. Would love to know how many thousands he did. It was my job as a kid to hand him wrenches. Back then at 7 or 8 yrs old I could have probably done one myself. Love the video. Brings back fond memories
Thanks again Rachel. Best most concise video's I have ever seen. Nice work!
Just finished this project on my 62 Ford 2000. Had to rebuild the pump too, but all is working perfectly now. Shuddered a bit the first few lifts, but now running smoothly! Thanks Rachel!
Thank you! I have a repair to do and yours is a straight forward intro to this. Cold weather here, so the point about using good fluids - the same - in all 3 makes sense. Cheers
Knocking it out of the park lady! Great job. Don't mind supporting a company that provides such great advice and not just out to sell parts. Keep up the great job and stay safe.
Awesome videos. I’ve watched several of them now, You obviously know what you are doing, and I’ll be going to your website first for spares. You totally deserve it for taking the time to make such professional walk-throughs. Priceless overall service, :)
It is always a pleasure to watch your tutorials to repair the tractors. Sébastien from France
Great video. Just a little late for me. after my hyd not working on my 800 for 10 years and being frustrated about not fixing it, I bought a Woods backhoe and installed it on the ford. The 800 has been in the family since 1972 so it means a lot to me. Great Video again.
Thanks for the great video. All the Ford Mechanics around here that knew this system have retired. The young guys can’t fix ‘em!
I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, both for the specific repair information, as well as techniques that can be applied across a multitude of tasks. You are not only knowledgeable, but also have a flair for educating others (something lacking in too many people trying to teach). Any family would be proud to have you as a member and any shop would be extremely lucky to have you turning a wrench. Hope all is well with you and yours as most of the nation "hunkers down in place." As a by-the-way, the IH Cub carb rebuild kit I bought from you was top notch. Thanks for your contributions to the old tractor community. Hopefully you can expand your offerings to further help us all and to help your business grow.
Good video ! I thank you for trying to help people repair their tractors. Note - the felt goes between the plate & the spring seat support .
With so many of these tractors still serving in the field, this is an excellent video that helps us small guys using older equipment. I just wish there were more of them, plus more books like her one on the Farmall Cub.....a great book that has already saved me money.
I agree and I use 901 &951 all the time, retired diesel mechanic and no hurry to plow or plant now
I need to change out psi relief valve
Tad of jurking at full lift
Ordered a Top lid kit for my 63 Ford 4140 light industrial and got it today. Started taking the lid off and oh my seems like none of the bolts have ever been out before as it was a chore. Thank You for the video helps ease the mind of what we’re gonna get into
Hi Rachel! Glad you have a new video up.
Thank you for the repair lesson, perfect as usual!
your videos are the best i have ever seen on repairs. you never skip or fast forward thru things and you leave me with the confidence to try these repairs on my own. i wish you had videos on massey ferguson 200 series because i have one that shakes sometimes when you raise the lift with a heavy implement such as a 6' bush hog. thanks very much
I really enjoy your videos. You have helped me have the confidence to try things I might otherwise not have tried. I will be trying this soon since my ford does just what you described in the video. I also watched your video on how to work on the carb and I did that and it really worked. Thanks again.
Thank you Dan and Rachel .
Just found this channel and got my first 63 Ford 4000 last night. These are awesome. I wish there was a whole series on rebuilding the 4000 or something I could buy. I want to be able to do my own troubleshooting and repairs.
This was a very informative and helpful video. I believe it will help me diagnose our tractor and make any repairs necessary. You have earned my subscription. Thank you for sharing.
These are great machines to learn on...almost all of them need work.
This is a wonderful presentation. This helped me get the confidence to tackle the job. At age 81 it gets a little tougher. There are however a few things that should be mentioned. In my case all went well until time to replace the pin. It would not come out and I had to take it to a welder / friend to heat it to get the pin out. Before he could do his job I needed to remove most of the linkages out so nothing would get damaged by the heat. The new pin was slightly bigger and would not go in so I needed to use a drill just slightly larger to ensure a proper fit. I also ordered Loctite to make a permanent bond. Putting everything back was good since I had the video for every step of the way. Not everything goes perfect every time but having a great presentation is very helpful. They also had the proper pin and gaskets. Thank you, Hank
How in the world does this excellent video rate 9 thumbs down? Rachel, your videos are ALL excellent! I am a Quaker farm boy, and when I was growing up on the farm as a boy, I dreamed of someone like you: smart, beautiful, and NOT afraid to get her hands dirty!! You're not one in a million, you are one in a billion! Bless your heart! God bless you and yours, Rachel! Be well...and thanks for your great videos!
It sounds like a romantic to me. God bless
Your tutorials are confidence inspiring. Thanks!
Thank you so so much as the rest of the population has also stated! My grandfather's Ford 600 was loosing lift and then just stopped working all together... Your kit was great with all the right orings and pieces needed. I think a good addendum to this video, would be how to take the main shaft out as to take the arm that holds the pin out for drilling the pin out. What at terrible time I had getting that thing out... Heating, beating and finally took the whole shaft out to remove that arm and drill the pin out! I was afraid of bending the arm or the shaft. But, you are awesome in all you do for the community of DIY'ers. Thank you again!
Great video, helped me get my failing 3-point lift back up and working smoothly. Used video to replace piston and piston O-rings, safety valve, hydraulic cylinder O-rings, and lid gasket. Used the Ford 600 manual and other resources to replace unloader valve O-ring (this was really failing on the lid), set loading-valve gaps (0.390 for draft control and 0.450 for implement control, see manual). Once all this was done the 3-point was raising and lowering as designed and holding, where before the work sometimes it wouldn't lift at all and when it did lift it wouldn't hold and would drift down requiring constant readjustment. Thanks Rachel!
I bought an 861 a couple months ago and had issues keeping my implements where I wanted them. drive a while and they drop to the ground. I watched this video and bought a couple pins and a gasket kit and pulled it apart (not a one man job but I did get it off and back on by myself). I love these Rachel videos. My pin was so bad that there was less than 1/16th of an inch left. A couple of things to mention. 1) make sure all the cylinders are all the way down (I shot fluid everywhere) 2) The pin will drive out , its just stuck pretty good. 3) Get help lifting on and off.
Been missing your videos. Always great job
I also love the the way she tells you step by step how to and what not to do, I need to to know how to rebuild the rear remote Hydraulic on a 2000 ford tractor, or a diagram. Thanks Tim
I really enjoy your videos. They are very precise and very informative. Thank you for from a novice tractor owner.
Another great video Rachel, thank you.
Great video! I ordered the kit and piston. That pivot pin was a little stubborn, but got er done today!
This is just the video I've been waiting for!! So glad it's here to help with my "lazy" hydraulics on my 860
Now, let's do a top overhaul on the engine Rachel!
When you say "lazy", what do you mean? Because my 860's hydraulics have been great for years, but all-of-a-sudden doesn't want to pick up anything remotely heavy. I can't decide if what I have is what they're covering here.
@@kenclark3953My hydraulics only go up a short distance, barely lifting my rotary mower and they leak down in a matter of a few minutes. It makes it usless when using a 3 point post hole digger.
Rachel I have an NAA, but I watched this just because of some similar components.
I would recommend using Kopper Coat anti seize. It makes a second disassembly much easier.
Thank you about the pivot pin hint.
I enjoyed and learned a lot about the project before I start on it.
Grandpa bought the NAA brand new. 4 farmers in our neighborhood bought NAA’s. 3 were equipped with a Deerborn loaders with engine driven front pumps. We removed our loader. My cousin still has her loader on, but her 3 point will not lift.
I need to check it out for her.
Thank you so much for the video.
Rachel I saw a neat video about the oil leak, it is called NAA Hydraulic Oil Leak by Random Stuff. You can see the hydraulic oil pouring out from the piston o-ring.
On the NAA if you remove the huge hydraulic fill plug, you can see if the piston seals are leaking, I think that you can see how worn the pivot pin is through the fill plug.
I do not know if the number series is built the same way.
Hello from north east Montana.

Awesome job. Very thorough. thank you!
Well done....so nice to see a young person passionate about their work.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does someone know a method to log back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost the account password. I love any tips you can offer me
@Theo Kelvin instablaster :)
@Jaime Cody thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Jaime Cody It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
@Theo Kelvin Happy to help =)
Absolutely beautiful, and the tractor is nice too :) no really, where else can you get all of this knowledge part by part. Great video!
I bought parts from you last yr and fixed the hydraulics on my 1959 Ford 671. Your clear video was much better than reading my Ford Service Manual 15 times. 3pth/lift was working great, until Sunday when I tried to lift a heavy log w a chain attached to my 8' grader blade. Overload! a loud clank noise - I thought chain snapped. No. Something in hydraulics - no more lift action. I parked it. Will watch your Hydraulic Repair videos again to prepare for my 15 min Tech Help phone call. Looking fwd to speak w you tomorrow at 9 AM. Steve Miller
Hi Rachel.
Great video as always.
I have driven lots of tractors and it is fun to do it I have fixed theme as well it is a good hobby to have
Great job young lady, love your show....
I wish she lived close to me. This lady knows her stuff. Thank you.
great video parts i ordered worked great i'm mechanically inclined but could not have guessed what all that boloney inside did ...thanks ...go well
once again great video thank you very informative
Wow! Rachel is gorgeous and a very competent mechanic.
I am going to buy an 801 Power Master and I really hope the hydraulics are shot so I can hire you to rebuild it. You are a wonderful teacher. I am impressed with your knowledge. Thank you for presenting this video.
Great video and repair information!
Buen trabajo y muy bien explicado
You are an impressive young lady. Very informative. Thank you Miss.....
I really enjoyed watching this good video 🤠
great job, just what i needed
So knowledgeable,
Very useful thanks so much!
You give very good information, Madam thank you 👍🇮🇳🚜🚜😁😁
Awesome video! God bless!
Beautiful,smart and gives the best presentation that I have ever heard on utube. Ratings on 1 to 10 scale she is a 15
great video thank you
fantastic great video
Great video thanks
My dad and I just repaired my 800's hydraulics using Rachel's parts and this video. Went smoothly and now my hydraulics work like new again! The toughest part was getting the pin out and putting the new hardened one (one of her grandpa's creations) back in. A little heat and in it went. Thanks again Rachel!
Y’all did this repair? Those hydraulic lines she mentions. How does that happen disconnecting and reconnecting them? Thanks for your time.
@@308dad8 hi, I will have to go back and see which part you're referring to. Yes we did this repair but I don't recall disconnecting any hydraulic lines. All of my repairs were under the top lid with the piston and lift mechanism.
@@mikeroark5570 Right. So when you took it off and put the top lid back on how is that connection made?
@@308dad8 the hydraulic fluid connections are through ports in the top plate (with o rings). No hoses.
@@mikeroark5570 Oh thanks. Took a lot of hesitation out of it for me. Mine is bad now just gotta figure out how much I need to replace and order it up
Thank you very much
Thanks
Awesome repair video 😎
You did mention going over what could be causing the tractor lift to be wobbly/hesitant when going up, but didn't mention what it likely was during the video.. unless I missed it. Any help would be much appreciated ☺️
Fantastic!!!
Awesome thanks
It would be nice it you did a video about draft and position control linkage adjustment.
Love your video series - so helpful. Pity you don't ship parts to New Zealand
شكرا لك عمل جيد
Well Done! Thanks for the info. 8-))
You are an amazing person 😍
Hi love your videos. Have learned so much.
I do have a question?
How do you change the lower pivot pin on the hydraulic lift arm on the 1956 ford 600 series tractor?
I hope my daughter grows up to be a lady like you. you are great
I have a ford 8 br here in brazil. I disassembled it all, the hydraulic system and also the differential and hydraulic system are the same. It's a pity that you can't find parts for repairs here anymore
very good job 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thanks for a great tutorial, Can u please do one for a ford 3000 hydraulic linkage adjustments inside the top lid ,My arms only lift half way and only start moving half way thru the adjuster, Thanks
good video as usual. That universal oil wouldn't be similar to automatic trans fluid would it?
Thank you so much for this video, quite enlightening. My lift system won't lift an implement. It's a new Holland 7056. Last month it was repaired the mechanic said he rebored the cylinder. What do I do?
Great video, Please do not use the abrasive wheel to clean the gasket off. The grit is very bad for everything. You do a very good job !
Engagement ring? 2:00 Some dude must be smiling right now.
Some lucky guy!!!
Not that it matters if she's engaged, why even comment on it? Congrats if you are Rachel, but thank you for helping me figure out how to get my 800 up and running like new!
Hi tractor Friend. Is there a away to tell if the pressure safety valve is leaky? Excellent video.
Need a video on the NAA or Jubilee top lid lift cylinder rebuild
Please make a vid on replacing the pto seal on an 800 ford
nice ring
Hi , love your show could you help me with a question...on a Ford 800 there is a solid copper wire coming out of the ?? Where does it go please
I’ve had the O ring on the lid blow out & leak internally. One is pressure, one is return. On my 900, you can remove the left side cover where the dipstick is & look for leaks more easily. Drive the left wheel up on a block of wood to tilt the tractor & keep the oil from running out.
If your fluid is filled to the proper level none should come out or not much
Do you have a video for replacing the lower lift link pin ??? Ford 3400
Safety glasses young lady! Says the guy who's run a grinder, swung at a chisel etc un-bespectacled himself uh... more than one occasion. My new 860 quit lifting a few lifts after I bought it ☹. Thinking it's the unloading valve stuck. Video makes it much clearer than the manual, thanks. Might be looking for some parts from you guys soon.
i watched your video to replace my clutch on ford 8n tractor. Finally got the nerves to split it apart. I purchased the parts and guide tool from yall. replaced it all, adjusted clutch but, seems like throw out bearing is not reaching clutch to disengage. pulled apart 3 more times to make sure nothing is in backwards or if any part is broke on parts pushing on clutch. sounds like its barely touching clutch but not enough. any clue what to check or try. Love the videos on how to make repairs on my 8n.
Could you show the adjusting drifting control and the other two please on the 600 ?
